Quincy Dane Speaks: Buying A Boat In A Foreign Country Can Save You Money
So you wanna buy a boat and have potentially found a boat you LOVE…but it’s in Panama. What to do?

Central America and the Caribbean North to South (West to East) by Sailboat: Fast or Slow, What’s Your Speed?
“Fast or Slow” cruising means this to me: Fast means traveling past Mexico through Central America to get through the Panama Canal by April or May. Then it means a pretty quick turnaround to get our butts through the western Caribbean and around to a hurricane safe port in Florida or Georgia by the end of June (hurricane season starts in June and runs through early November). The Slow cruising that we’re talking about is slowing waaaay down and going through Central America more slowly, needing to stay in Panama until November, as both Costa Rica and Panama are out of the hurricane belt.
